The Business of Producing BUSINESS OF PRODUCING Course: MKTG-GB.2116.30 Spring 2019 Professor: Peter Newman Email: [email protected] Location: KMC 5-80 Teaching Assistant: Kristian King Email: [email protected] COURSE BACKGROUND This specialized EMT course is a “soup to nuts” examination of what it means to be an independent film and television producer. Through real life experiences it looks into what makes film and TV such unique businesses. The course will take a close look at the inevitable battles between commerce and art. It will focus on identifying the factors of risk versus reward in selecting projects, and seeing them to fruition. As potential entrepreneurial producers, the class will study techniques in leveraging limited amounts of time and capital into maximum results; while attempting to balance unbridled optimism against sensible business logic. COURSE OBJECTIVES - Understand the role and responsibilities of being an independent producer. - Establishing a way of judging the artistic merit and economic possibilities of a project at various stages from inception to completion. - To learn the infrastructures of companies in the entertainment industry, and to understand how to effectively work within them to successfully produce content. - To examine morality in the film business. How to balance one’s personal values and quality of life in a difficult business environment - What are a producer’s objectives, and how is one willing to behave to get them achieved? COURSE REQUIREMENTS 1 Class participation will be extremely important, since much of the study of the role of the producer will be obtained from specific lectures, articles, assignments, video clips, some selected texts, and experienced guest speakers. GRADING The class will be graded on the following basis: Class Participation 30% Paper/Presentation 70% Instructor Policies: Lateness: Late assignments are not accepted. If you miss any assignment deadlines, i.e., at the start of a class period on the due date, you forfeit a grade on that assignment. Absences/tardiness will lower your class participation grade significantly. Class Preparation: Topics for each lecture are identified in the syllabus. It is critical that you do the assigned reading for the week in advance of the lecture since that session will build on the reading material. It is recommended that when you are preparing for the class, read the assigned chapter(s) from the text. Class Participation: You will be evaluated on class participation by both the professor and lecturers. It is pertinent we learn your names for fair grading and interpersonal interaction. Do be sure to complete the information sheet. In addition, you are encouraged to create and use nameplates in each session. Please contribute to class sessions. This is meant to be a dialogue, not a monologue. Be ready to disagree with others and develop your own position, and engage others (rather than just the professor) in lively discussion. In a good class session, the majority of the learning comes from each participant attempting to understand the issues, limitation of theory, case problems, alternatives, etc. If successful, your increased insights and understanding will come from within and from your interactions with one another rather than from the instructor. Please continue with the reading assignments as scheduled regardless of whether the class activities at times fall behind schedule.

New York-based Peter Newman Productions has worked with some of the world’s most important filmmakers, including Robert Altman, Paul Auster, Jonathan Demme, Nancy Savoca, John Sayles, and Wayne Wang among its 30 films. Most recently he produced Noah Baumbach’s THE SQUID AND THE WHALE, which won the Best Writing and Directing Awards at the 2005 Sundance Film Festival. THE SQUID AND THE WHALE which stars Jeff Daniels and Laura Linney, was a co- production with Wes Anderson’s American Empirical Pictures. It was nominated for six Spirit Awards, including Best Picture; three Golden Globes, including Best Film - Musical or Comedy; and received an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Screenplay. A former sportscaster, Newman began his road toward producing when he served as executive producer and host of the PBS special, MUHAMMED ALI: ONE MORE MIRACLE. He went on to produce documentary profiles of ballet dancers Gelsey Kirkland and Natalia Makarova before turning to feature filmmaking in 1982 with Robert Altman’s BACK TO THE FIVE AND DIME, JIMMY DEAN, JIMMY DEAN. The film, which starred Cher, Sandy Dennis, Karen Black and Kathy Bates, was the grand prize winner of the Chicago International Film Festival. Newman then moved into features full-time, serving either as producer or executive producer on numerous films including two-time Academy Award-winner Horton Foot’s “1918” and ON VALENTINE’S DAY, Jonathan Demme’s film of Spalding Gray’s SWIMMING TO CAMBODIA, Harry Hook’s re-make of LORD OF THE FLIES, Altman’s O.C & STIGGS, Jay Russell’s END OF THE LINE, Anthony Drazin’s ZEBRAHEAD, the Sundance Filmmakers Trophy winner which he co-executive produced with Oliver Stone, and John Sayle’s THE SECRET OF ROAN INISH. In 1989, Newman produced Nancy Savoca’s DOGFIGHT, a Warner Brothers release starring River Phoenix and Lili Taylor. He then went on to produce Savoca’s HOUSEHOLD SAINTS for Fine Line Features, starring Lili Taylor and Tracy Ullman, before collaborating with her again on THE 24 HOUR WOMAN. With future partner Greg Johnson, Newman produced Wayne Wang’s film of Paul Auster’s SMOKE, starring Harvey Keitel and William Hurt. SMOKE was the winner of three major awards at the 1995 Berlin Film Festival and was voted best film at the 1995 Locarno International Film Festival. Newman and Johnson also collaborated on Wang and Auster’s BLUE IN THE FACE, the extemporaneously created companion piece to SMOKE, as well as the independent sci-fi comedy SPACE TRUCKERS, which premiered at the 1997 Sundance Film Festival. 5 Among Newman’s other producing credits are Sara Kernochan’s ALL I WANNA DO, starring Kirsten Dunst and Rachel Leigh Cook (Miramax), and Paul Auster’s directorial debut LULU ON THE BRIDGE, which premiered at the 1998 Cannes Film Festival. Newman also produced on Wayne Wang’s digital video theatrical feature, THE CENTER OF THE WORLD for Artisan, as well as Bob Gale’s (BACK TO THE FUTURE) INTERSTATE 60, featuring James Marsden, Gary Oldman and Michael J. Fox for 7 Arts. He was executive producer of Alfredo deVilla’s WASHINGTON HEIGHTS, which won the audience prize at the 2002 Los Angeles Film Festival. In conjunction with Crusader Entertainment, he produced THE GAME OF THEIR LIVES directed by David Anspaugh (HOOSIERS), which opened theatrically national-wide in April 2005.

  • Extreme Art Film: Text, Paratext and DVD Culture Simon Hobbs
    Extreme Art Film: Text, Paratext and DVD Culture Simon Hobbs The thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Portsmouth. September 2014 Declaration Whilst registered as a candidate for the above degree, I have not been registered for any other research award. The results and conclusions embodied in this thesis are the work of the named candidate and have not been submitted for any other academic award. Word count: 85,810 Abstract Extreme art cinema, has, in recent film scholarship, become an important area of study. Many of the existing practices are motivated by a Franco-centric lens, which ultimately defines transgressive art cinema as a new phenomenon. The thesis argues that a study of extreme art cinema needs to consider filmic production both within and beyond France. It also argues that it requires an historical analysis, and I contest the notion that extreme art cinema is a recent mode of Film production. The study considers extreme art cinema as inhabiting a space between ‘high’ and ‘low’ art forms, noting the slippage between the two often polarised industries. The study has a focus on the paratext, with an analysis of DVD extras including ‘making ofs’ and documentary featurettes, interviews with directors, and cover sleeves. This will be used to examine audience engagement with the artefacts, and the films’ position within the film market. Through a detailed assessment of the visual symbols used throughout the films’ narrative images, the thesis observes the manner in which they engage with the taste structures and pictorial templates of art and exploitation cinema.

Macciomei: Co-optation of the American Dream Independent cinema has been an aspect of the American film industry since the inception of the art form itself. The aspects and perceptions of independent film have altered drastically over the years, but in general it can be used to describe American films produced and distributed outside of the Hollywood major studio system. But as American film history has revealed time and time again, independent studios always struggle to maintain their freedom from the Hollywood industrial complex. American independent cinema has been heavily integrated with major Hollywood studios who have attempted to tap into the niche markets present in filmgoers searching for theatrical experiences outside of the mainstream. From this, we can say that the American independent film industry has a long history of co-optation, acquisition, and the stifling of competition from the major film studios present in Hollywood, all of whom pose a threat to the autonomy that is sought after in these markets by filmmakers and film audiences.

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Paul Auster’ın Cam Kent romanının iki farklı çevirisinde çevirmene zorluk yaratacak öğelerin çevirmenler tarafından nasıl çevrildiğini Venuti’nin yerlileştirme ve yabancılaştırma kavramları ışığı altında analiz ederek çevirmenlerin uyguladıkları stratejileri tespit etmektir. Bunun yanı sıra Venuti’nin çevirmenin görünürlüğü ve görünmezliği yaklaşımları temel alınarak hangi çevirmenin daha görünür ya da görünmez olduğunu ortaya koymak amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda, çevirmenler için zorluk yaratan öğelerin sıklıkla kullanıldığı ve postmodern biçemiyle bilinen Paul Auster’a ait Cam Kent adlı eserin Yusuf Eradam (1993) ve İlknur Özdemir (2004) tarafından Türkçe’ye yapılan iki farklı çevirisi analiz edilmiştir. Bu eserin çevirisini zorlaştıran faktörler; özel isimler, kelime oyunları, bireydil, dilbilgisel normlar, tipografi, gönderme ve yabancı sözcükler olmak üzere yedi başlık altında toplanmış olup Cam Kent romanının iki farklı çevirisinde tercih edilen çeviri stratejileri karşılaştırılmıştır. Bu karşılaştırma, Venuti’nin çevirmenin görünmezliği yaklaşımı temel alınarak hangi çevirmenin daha görünür ya da görünmez olduğunu incelemek üzere yapılmıştır. İki çevirinin karşılaştırmalı analizinin ardından, iki çevirmenin de farklı öğeler için yerlileştirme ve yabancılaştırma yaklaşımlarını bir çeviri stratejisi olarak kullandığı sonucuna varılmıştır.

You will write essays which will discuss and analyze several of the films we will study using accurate vocabulary and language relating to cinematic methods and techniques. Just as an author uses literary devices to convey ideas in a story or novel, filmmakers use specific techniques to present their ideas on screen in the world of the film.

  • The Edward R. Murrow of Docudramas and Documentary
    Media History Monographs 12:1 (2010) ISSN 1940-8862 The Edward R. Murrow of Docudramas and Documentary By Lawrence N. Strout Mississippi State University Three major TV and film productions about Edward R. Murrow‟s life are the subject of this research: Murrow, HBO, 1986; Edward R. Murrow: This Reporter, PBS, 1990; and Good Night, and Good Luck, Warner Brothers, 2005. Murrow has frequently been referred to as the “father” of broadcast journalism. So, studying the “documentation” of his life in an attempt to ascertain its historical role in supporting, challenging, and/or adding to the collective memory and mythology surrounding him is important. Research on the docudramas and documentary suggests the depiction that provided the least amount of context regarding Murrow‟s life (Good Night) may be the most available for viewing (DVD). Therefore, Good Night might ultimately contribute to this generation (and the next) having a more narrow and skewed memory of Murrow. And, Good Night even seems to add (if that is possible) to Murrow‟s already “larger than life” mythological image. ©2010 Lawrence N. Strout Media History Monographs 12:1 Strout: Edward R.

  • Classrooms of the Future Marty Mcfly and Dr Emmett Brown Managed To
    Classrooms of the Future Marty McFly and Dr Emmett Brown managed to do it. They transported themselves through time in the film Back to the Future and its sequels. In the second film, on October 26, 1985, Dr. Emmett Brown arrived in the DeLorean time machine and persuaded Marty McFly and his girlfriend, Jennifer Parker, to travel to the future with him and help their forthcoming children. They travelled thirty years ahead to October 26, 2015. The film was actually made in 1989, some 26 years before the futuristic date in the film. The screenwriters, Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale, attempted to predict the future. According to Zemeckis, the 2015 depicted in the film was not meant to be an accurate representation of the future. However, the film did correctly predict a number of technological and sociological changes that occurred by 2015, including: the rise of ubiquitous cameras; the use of unmanned flying drones for newsgathering; widescreen flat-panel television sets mounted on walls with multiple channel viewing; video chat systems; hands-free video games; talking hologram billboards; wearable technology; tablet computers with fingerprint scanners; and head-mounted displays. Payment on personal portable devices was also depicted. I am also trying to predict a future: that of education, yet I am not looking 26 years hence. Rather I am looking at five to seven years and the change is likely to be just as impressive as in the film, only achieved in fewer years. This is due to the exponential growth in IT and the impact it is likely to have on education.
